Is this the robot girlfriend or boyfriend you’ve been waiting for? UBTECH has officially launched UWORLD, its consumer full-size hyper-realistic humanoid robot series. Pricing starts at RMB 119,800, about $17.6K, for the lighter half-body U1 Lite. U1 Pro is RMB 169,800, about $25K. U1 Ultra goes much higher: RMB 990,000, about $146K, for the male version, and RMB 880,000, about $130K, for the female version. UBTECH says the first-generation bionic robots are built around “emotional value,” mainly for single users and seniors over 60 who need companionship and care. The goal is more natural human-robot interaction, emotional companionship, and basic life assistance. They also showed more than 50 full-size hyper-realistic humanoid designs, with different male and female looks, body types, and heights from 1.60 m to 1.85 m. That’s the bigger signal here: humanoid robots are starting to move from one standard body into personalized consumer products. U1 is already open for pre-order on JD, with more than 13,361 orders so far. UBTECH says it will push mass production and delivery, aiming to complete those 10,000+ orders this year. Consumer humanoid robots just entered a real market test.
